Silversun Pickups Sideshow

Well this is exciting news. As you might have known, Los Angeles quartet Silversun Pickups are supporting Snow Patrol on their Australian tour in September. Not being a Snow Patrol fan, nor a stadium rock show fan, I was hoping for a SSPU sideshow. The good news is, it's now happening. They are playing the Annandale Hotel on September 15. Also apparently they have a Melbourne show planned but I don't have any details of that yet.Tickets go on sale July 26 and more information can be found here.MP3:Well Thought Out TwinklesMP3:Lazy Eye
